What's wrong with this lawyer?!

Chapter 294: Chapter 126: No Need to Thank the Prosecutor!_3



He had also become familiar with some of the elders living next to the hotel.

One could only sigh that the old man sipping tea in his vest must be really wealthy. Old Tang felt that even if he worked himself to death, he would have a hard time catching up...

At first, other people didn\'t know him and just saw a pale-faced young man who seemed to be in poor health and advised him to pay attention to his well-being.

With such advice, a conversation started, and then the old men and women learned that he was none other than the famous Tang Fangjing from the Internet!

"Eh, Lawyer Tang, have you seen what they\'re saying about you online? Aren\'t you going to respond?" one of the elders asked while sitting in the teahouse.

Old Tang said with a smile, "No need to respond, it\'s unnecessary. Even if I reply now, those who don\'t believe me still won\'t believe me. They\'ve already got their own logic set in stone."

Arguing would never result in winning.

Especially now, if you lost the case, they would say you were desperate to make money and would take any case.

If you won the case, they would say you must have had some deal with the judge, that there was something underhanded going on!

In such a situation, what\'s the point in speaking? You just need to take action.

Unnoticed by others, Old Tang had already started to collect those online accounts and their posted messages.

Did they really think he, Tang Fangjing, was someone they could talk about so casually?

A million words online can\'t compare to taking action in reality.

A few days passed in a flash, and the online interest in the case slowly faded due to the plethora of trending topics.

Especially the gossip about internet celebrities, which inexplicably reached incredibly high levels of excitement.

In such an environment, Zheng Lingfen\'s account "Afen\'s Aid" suddenly released a bombshell.

"The previous negligent injury case is not over, the Baishan District Prosecution has decided to appeal!"

When the message was released, just at the tail end of the event\'s hype, netizens who had already lost interest were once again paying attention.

After the social media account released the bombshell, both the Baishan District Prosecution and the superior Eastern City Prosecution issued statements.

The Baishan District Prosecution filed an appeal, Eastern City Prosecution agreed to the appeal, and planned to send prosecutors to participate in the second trial!

"I knew it, the judgment was definitely unfair. How could it have been not guilty? The driver had to bear some responsibility no matter what he said; it couldn\'t be that there was none at all!"

"Kudos to Baishan District Prosecution, faulty verdicts should be challenged."

"Like +1, if lawyers with big names can influence the judgment, then what\'s the point of the court? A retrial is a must!"

Similar comments abounded, and web celebrities like Lawyer Zheng were now ecstatic beyond measure.

"See, I told you all before, there was something wrong with the verdict in this case. The prosecution wouldn\'t just ignore it. Faulty verdicts need to be appealed!"

"Now what do those who insulted me have to say? Look back at my words; which one wasn\'t correct?"

"Lawyers should defend properly and not think about other nonsense!"

At the Politics and Law University, Gui Xueting was also very excited as she looked at the online news!

However, unlike Lawyer Zheng\'s thrill of successfully riding the wave of popularity, Gui Xueting felt that the justice she believed in was being defended!

"I support the appeal; this is how it should be done. I\'m waiting for the results of the second trial!"

And then there was "Idle Clouds and Wild Cranes" who went straight to the point as soon as the news broke.

"I\'m quite curious to see what Tang Fangjing will do now, or does he still think he can sort everything out? To those brainless fans, wake up. Tang Fangjing is just a lawyer, not some paragon of justice!"

"In all these years, there\'s nothing I haven\'t seen. I can only say that there are too many ignorant people nowadays. If you had just a few more friends, you\'d know the situation. If you really don\'t understand, then there\'s nothing I can do..."

Li Huaiqing was truly anxious as he watched the news from home.

He was aware of Lawyer Tang\'s reputation, but now with the current situation, Lawyer Tang himself had become a target for online harassment.

Fortunately, life goes on, and in this environment, Old Tang learned of the prosecution\'s reasons for the appeal.

The reasons weren\'t very different from those in the first trial, with the main addition being the incorporation of the drunkenness factor.

It was believed that the taxi driver had an obligation to ensure the safety of the passengers and, apart from announcing the intention to jump out if the car didn\'t stop, had also banged on the windows among other actions.

The taxi driver, knowing that the person had already attempted to jump out once, still didn\'t stop the car and even sped away.

Therefore, there was a legal causal link between the failure to stop the car and the severe injuries of the victim, and the first court\'s verdict of not guilty was unjust, not commensurate with the crime, hence the legal appeal!

Eastern City Prosecution supported the appeal, and the reasons were essentially similar, elaborating from subjective, objective, and causal aspects.

It\'s just that... Old Tang looked at other aspects and found that no new evidence was presented, just relying on words to contest.

It would be easy to find reasons to refute that.

In such an atmosphere, the second trial commenced, and it was still a public hearing, to the dissatisfaction of netizens, as once again the court hearing was not being broadcast live!
